Earnings remain dominant on calendar

Weekly jobless claims are the main economic report on today's calendar, and the earnings lineup remains active.

The Labor Department will release the data at 8:30 a.m. ET. Economists expect that 351,000 Americans filed for first-time unemployment benefits, down from 352,000 last week. A higher number may be interpreted bearishly because it would mean that more people had lost their jobs, while a lower one would be bullish.
